Apoorva Raagangal (Rare melodies) released on 15th August 1975, was written and directed by K. Balachander. It stars Kamal Haasan, Sundarrajan, Srividya and Jayasudha, while Nagesh and Rajinikanth, in his feature film debut, play supporting roles. The film revolves around Prasanna (Haasan) who falls in love with the much older Bhairavi (Srividya) while Bhairavi's daughter Ranjani (Jayasudha) is drawn to Prasanna's father Mahendran (Sundarrajan). Apoorva Raagangal's theme was based on a riddle featured in the Indian folktale collection Vetala Panchavimshati about a king marrying a woman and his son marrying her mother, and Vetala, the riddler asking Vikramaditya what would be their kinship relations if these couples were to beget children. The film featured the debut of Superstar Rajinikanth. His entry scene was shot on 27 March 1975, the same day that Balachander gave Rajinikanth his name. The Music of Apoorva Raagangal  (music Mellisai Mannar MS Viswanathan, lyrics Kaviar...
